ABSTRACT Wu, L.L., 2020. Correlation between population migration and regional planning based on urbanization of coastal cities. In: Al-Tarawneh, O. and Megahed, A. (eds.), Recent Developments of Port, Marine, and Ocean Engineering. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 110, pp. 50–53. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. Since the 21st century, as the level of economic and social development has become higher and higher, China's offshore area has been rapidly developed as the focus of national economic development and opening up, and the urbanization of coastal cities has also continued to develop and evolve. The areas of population movement and concentration are inextricably linked to the degree of local economic development. Data from the fifth and sixth national censuses show that more and more people are moving to coastal cities that are more suitable for human habitation, forming a new regional development model and spatial combination with Chinese characteristics. While the floating population drives the economic development of coastal cities, it also brings many problems to be faced. On this basis, it is very important to carry out research on the correlation between population movement and regional planning in the process of urbanization of coastal cities.
